Yes, that is a bit exaggerated, but I had more or less similar situations too often, even with as little as only 1% missing to the hard cap. if you want to be reliable for tanking, you want to be at 2550 hit and 5100 expertise by all costs. if that means, for instance, to socket a 320 exp gem instead of a 160exp/160haste gem, then so be it.
